funny you mention bread. Bread is much more expensive today than 7 years ago...yet airline fares are not going up at such a rate.
I paid US $4.50 for one loaf of bread today. It was much less a few years ago.
if one baker poisons a hundred loaves of bread...500 could die
if one pilot slams his plane into a building, thousands could die.
both jobs are important. but I know how much I spent learning to fly...and how easy it is to make a loaf of bread. I can get a book that will tell me how to bake and do quite well...try it with flying.
We all say stupid things when we're kids. But we don't all say them on the Internet, where they're available to anyone, potentially for all time.
If there were a Darwin award for flyers' careers, I'd nominate your posting. With an attitude like this, you're gonna do great.
